And of course, as always with every smackdown “special”, we will see loads of people from RAW, I love smackdown I really do, but either kill the brand split or honor it, cuz they always mess with us like this

I hope they aren’t bluffing about Brodus coming back. He and Wade would make a Hell of a tag team! Two imposing streetfighters from different countries; both bent on world domination… They would kick so much ass!

Brodus Clay is not even a poor man’s King Kong Bundy more like a poor man’s Tugboat/Typhoon he sucks! Can’t move at all has no charisma, no mic skills, is currently by far worst WWE wrestler in a LONG TIME!
